In the link provided above, the entire Act I in animation is shown. Some important events include where Cassius is persuading Brutus that Caesar is not the man the people view him as.
In this event, Cassius uses RHETORICAL persuasion to get Brutus to listen to him! The quote from act I Scene II is as follows: "Brutus and Caesar: What should be in that "Caesar"? Why should that name be sounded more than yours?" Clever, clever Cassius using his convincing language! But this is not the first time Cassius tries to persuade Brutus. "Ay do you fear it? Then must I think you would not have it so?" In this part of Act I Cassius is trying to get Brutus to talk, I suppose it worked in a way. Then a Mr. Casca comes into the picture and describes how Caesar is "putting on a show" and denies power that is given to him, "Why, there was a crown offered to him, and being offered to him, he put it by with the back of his hand, thus, and then the people fell a shouting."
Its a shame we aren't allowed to see YouTube videos but luckily SchoolTube is provided. This has extremely strange animation but it just adds to the effect of the play! The dark colors show the emotion of the play from the times of rain and depression. Bright colors of the races and show drama but somberness. Vivid yet detailed, the creator of this animation got the main point from Julius Caesar. Beware the Ides of March! (Oh its the day after, oh well)
Yes, that nutty Mr. Casca. This is good, it seems that you incorporated both the quote assignment and the video clip assignment in to your analysis.
